Some of you may have voted for the JIRA Issue MISC-2727 "Terminate All Installation of any "Adult Content" filtering, Relocation, Banning, Viewer Modifications, Server Modifications". If you have no idea what this issue is about, it was to cast a vote on who thinks Lindens have a right to stop freedom of Adult Content & sims. Weather you like adult content or not is not the main issue, it's about our rights & freedoms. Please read attached notecard for more information, and how you can have a voice!

Dear Friends,
Some of you may have voted for the JIRA Issue MISC-2727 "Terminate All Installation of any "Adult Content" filtering, Relocation, Banning, Viewer Modifications, Server Modifications".
NOTE: If you have no idea what this issue is about, well it was to cast a vote on who thinks SL has a right to stop freedom of Adult Content & sims. SL is trying to take our rights away as Avatars living within the SL Universe. Weather you like adult content or not is not the main issue, it's about our rights & freedoms in Second Life.
This issue was closed by Rob Linden on 2 Jun 2009. RichD Tomsen, who originated the issue, was threatened with banning, and DanielRavenNest Noe actually was banned from the JIRA system for trying to keep it open!
5 new issues have now been added that are aimed at specific technical changes, drawn from all the comments people made. These are:
MISC-2907 Fix Known Bugs in Account Verification system
MISC-2908 Fix Error Messages when Searching for Adult Content
MISC-2909 Fix Search Filter
MISC-2910 Provide Parental control features
MISC-2911 Provide content filters for SL client
Please take a look at them, and comment and vote for them if you are so inclined.

Take a chunk of names, send them this suggested card, or your own, and then mark them done like this:
Please don't let the Lindens think they can just shut us up, let's show them that this is our world too & we have a say. We have rights in SL, and freedoms!
Thank you..
